Disabling MSN in Outlook Express

When Outlook Express starts it automatically starts MSN. But there is a way to stop this behavior:

1. Start Registry Edit (Click Start, then Run, type in 'regedit' and click OK).
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Outlook Express .
3. Create new DWORD value with name "Hide Messenger" and set value to 2.

Now you just need to stop MSN, and restart Outlook Express. You will see that MSN Messenger no longer appear.
